What Zhao Ling regretted most was having a few too many drinks. What he regretted even more was drinking with Lawyer Jian, who looked as cold as ice.

Getting carried away after drinking isn't the scary part. The scary part is waking up to find the other person handing you a contract to sign.

Staring at the words "Cohabitation Agreement," Zhao Ling began to wonder if alcohol had pickled the man's brain.

Zhao Ling: "D-do we really need a contract for this?"

Jian Shaojun: "Given that we had no intimate relationship before yesterday, and what happened after we drank yesterday, signing this agreement will better mitigate any potential legal risks."

Zhao Ling: "What risks could there be?!"

Jian Shaojun: "I could be accused of molestation or intentional assault. Of course, based on my post-incident examination, I don't believe I caused you any injury amounting to minor harm or worse."

Zhao Ling: "..."

He was wrong. It was his own brain that had been pickled. A one-night stand was no big deal, and neither was losing his self-control again that morning. But why on earth had he chosen a lawyer for a one-night stand?

Zhao Ling: "Fine, let's do what your contract says. Just sleep together, no feelings."

Jian Shaojun: "Of course."

Zhao Ling: "So... do I really have to sign it?"

Jian Shaojun: "Out of consideration for the other party to this contract, I should remind you that this is what happens when you don't sign a contract before a one-night stand."

Zhao Ling: It was all because of you, wasn't it?!

Coming soon 1: "After Going Undercover, I Was Forced Into a Happy Ending With the CEO"

Wen Shaoyan: "As my secretary, you must embody the virtues of warmth, kindness, respectfulness, frugality, and humility. Understood?"

Secretary Yu: "Y-yes, I u-understand."

·One year later·

Yu Mengyang: "As my police officer's spouse..."

Wen Shaoyan: "I can definitely embody those virtues of warmth, kindness, respectfulness, frugality, and humility."

Yu Mengyang: "You don't have to go that far. Just obey the law, stay positive, and don't cause me trouble."

Wen Shaoyan: "Reporting to Officer Yu: I can do that during the day. At night... not necessarily."

Coming soon 2: "[AA] This Alpha Has Gone Mad"

Everyone among the Federation's prominent families knows that the young master of the Bai family and the Qin family's heir have been at each other's throats since childhood.

Whenever Qin Xing goes on a blind date, Bai Qi is sure to interfere.

He always gives pretty much the same reason: This man is mine.

Outsiders might believe him, but anyone who knows the truth knows it's impossible, because Qin Xing is an SSS-rank Alpha, and the Bai family's young master, who's prettier than an Omega, is a bona fide Alpha too.

◎◎◎

Few people know that the seemingly frivolous young master of the Bai family is actually the elusive captain of the Qilin Special Forces.

Few people know that the seemingly composed Major Qin once stayed awake for several nights just waiting for a call to let him know someone was safe.

And fewer still know, perhaps not even Major Qin himself, that after Qin Xing presented as an Alpha, the young master of the Bai family who was always trading barbs with him earnestly wrote down a wish: If I present as an Omega, I swear I'll be a good person from then on.

Unfortunately, heaven turned a blind eye, and the Federation ended up with a menace to society.

Theme: Break through hardship and keep striving.
